I never need to find time to read. When people say to me, ‘Oh, yeah, I love reading. I would love to read, but I just don’t have time,’ I’m thinking, ‘How can you not have time?’ I read when I’m drying my hair. I read in the bath. I read when I’m sitting in the bathroom. Pretty much anywhere I can do the job one-handed, I read.
J. K. Rowling

J. K. Rowling
Hello, Minister! bellowed Percy, sending a neat jinx straight at Thicknesse, who dropped his wand and clawed at the front of his robes, apparently in awful discomfort. Did I mention I'm resigning?
J. K. Rowling
Wit beyond measure is a man's greatest treasure.
J. K. Rowling
There is a lot of comedy in magic, and magic going wrong, and also it is a dramatic subject.
